    Got nothing to say thats not already been said I'm afraid. Underwhelmed as usual, but I'll keep my powder dry until I see a proper signing come in. We have a squad full of 'one for the future' players, need some 'one for right now' players

    Smith is really starting to feel more and more like the one that got away.

    Why? he didn't really do too much at fulham last year. Did decently well when on loan at Birstol City but its league 1 and he's 26 now. Should really be almost at his peak.

    He's a good option to have off the bench but I never really wanted him starting.

    Exactly that Josh, hes an option. A chance to change things up which i think we lack. Plus he is still learning his trade so I dont agree with him peaking as yet. <ok>

    Good morning to Matt and co from a sunny Bardsey
    Erwin will be a very good signing he has great poise to good feet and can score with either foot and has PACE.For 375k he will be an absolute steal so please make a note Ristac and quote me every week. BTW you spell phoney like this not like you spelt it
    Bamba you can't say his agent hasn't tried to get him a more lucrative contract but Moore would now look a better bet
    White going to Rotherham I wish him well
    Unlike the rest I like the fact that we are buying in good prospects and not going for players who are coming for their last pay day

    I'd still like to sign Bamba even if we get Moore. We certainly won't be getting Moore on a permanent basis anyway, he is quite highly rated at Leicester.

    I suppose Leicester will have a price they will accept for him lets say its 2m we could probably get 5m for Byram

    It'll be more than 2m, we won't pay that. He is available for loan this season only but they will want to keep him, I'd imagine his value would similar if not probably more than Byram.

    Morning Mike,

    I reckon Erwin will be a good signing.

    Hope Bamba signs an 18 month contract with us with an option of another year.

    I have to admit when I'm wrong unlike some I wrote to Simon to urge him to buy Dale Jennings when he was available from Bayern Munich who had bought him for 1m from Tranmere 2 years previously.Well we were at the time I was led to believe out bid by Barnsley who gave him a bumper wage packet. Well today they have severed his contract and he is now a free agent.This lad was a star for the future and signingfor a club like Bayern really turned his head so I hope he can now focus on getting fit which seems to be his problem would he be worth a risk he certainly had all the boxes ticked 4 seasons ago maybe a change of club is the answer to say I',m disappointed is an understatement

    Morning all from sunny spain.
    I think redders going back to the academy is a good move,it was agreed when he took on the coaches role so don't see why he should tell them to shove it.
    I just hope all these new appointments stay in their jobs long enough to see some bebefits!

    Morning Este, hope your enjoying the sun? I just think he was almost managed out and treated really unfairly. I wouldnt want to stay and work for someone who done that to me, in fact I'd want there head on stick outside the ground!

    Leeds will NOT be offering a contract to Granddi Ngoyi.

    The fact that he only played one game might have had something to do with it.

    Morning all

    Yup we're getting squad players but at least they're young British players instead of some 17 year old Serb from AC Milan who's never played a game
